Sweet Corn Spectacular Sept. 11

The Waseca Art Center has partnered up with Birds Eye/ Pinnacle Foods LLC for a free fun event centered around Sweet Corn Spectacular, a recipe book written by Marie Porter, on Thursday, Sept. 11. Two events will take place. The first will be from 4-5:30 pm and will be a book signing and taste testing of Porter’s salsa. This event is open to the public and will be in the WAC lobby. Porter will talk informally and answer questions. Marie Porter’s book, Sweet Corn Spectacular was mentioned in the August issue of Midwest Living on Page 8. They tried the Sweet Corn Bruschetta and liked it enough to put the recipe in the magazine. The second event begins at 7 p.m., is free, but by invitation only, in order to control numbers of people. It will be held in the Kent & Diane Schultz Auditorium and be a taste testing of at least four recipes (Corn Pot Pie, Corn Hotdish, Corn Salsa, Corn Muffins). Music and beverages will enhance the evening and Porter will speak, sign books and answer questions.
